GRAHAM — A 71-year-old was sentenced this week to a minimum of three years in prison on drug charges.

Finley Wayne Rogers of 3146 Way Road, Liberty, was charged with numerous counts of cocaine possession and sales in 2011 and 2012 by the Alamance County Sheriff’s Office and the N.C. Alcohol Law Enforcement Agency of Greensboro.

Rogers pleaded guilty Monday to five counts of possession with intent to sell/deliver cocaine, five counts of sell cocaine, four counts of deliver cocaine and six counts of conspiracy to sell cocaine. According to court documents, the state dismissed one count each of possession with intent to sell/deliver cocaine and sell cocaine in the plea agreement.

Wake County Superior Court Judge Donald Stephens sentenced Rogers as a level-four offender and issued two consecutive, active sentences of 18 to 31 months in prison.

According to the N.C. Department of Public Safety’s website, Finley completed a three-year sentence for drug trafficking and other drug-related crimes in 2007. He was convicted of possessing a firearm and drugs later that year and served a probationary sentence.

Also in Alamance County Superior Court:

■ Timothy Scott Liptrap, 45, of Ortega Park Boulevard, Jacksonville, Fla., pleaded guilty to two counts of obtaining property by false pretense and two counts of misdemeanor impersonating a law enforcement officer.

According to court documents, Liptrap was charged in September 2012 with identifying himself as a police officer to two women and telling them a co-worker had been arrested. He told them they needed to post $200 to $300 in bond money to get them out of jail.

Lipscomb is serving a five-year sentence for similar convictions in Durham and Johnston counties, according to the N.C. Department of Public Safety website.

Stephens issued a 16- to 29-month sentence to run concurrently with Lipscomb’s current sentence. Lipscomb is scheduled for release from prison in 2016.

According to court documents, Ford was charged May 12 with punching two women during an altercation, breaking both of their noses and causing a swollen eye on one of the victims.

In exchange for the plea, the state dismissed additional charges of assault inflicting bodily injury with a minor present, assault on a female, and interfering with emergency communications.

Stephens sentenced Ford as a level-one offender, issued a suspended 13- to 25-month sentence and placed Ford on two years’ probation. Ford was ordered not to have contact with the victims, complete anger management courses and a mental health assessment, and pay $125 in restitution.
